Bug Description
To reproduce boot the lubuntu desktop i386 iso in kvm vm with vmvga graphics as the backend emulated hardware or anything else with a 800x600 screen selecting isntall from the boot menu and go through the keyboard layout will show the ok button to install will be cut off and you have to move the installer window partially off the screen to press ok.
I expected the installer to show on the screen. Instead I would have to move the window. Also I am running this vm on a base of vivid lubuntu host. I also don't have a way when selecting install from the menu to open up lxrandr to chache to the higher resolutions supported by vmvga in the installer.

Description: Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch)
Release: 15.10
I expected the installer to show on the screen or start in a mode where it could install in virt manager without being off the screen with vmvga graphics. Instead it was cut off of the screen and I will attach a screenshot from my host.
